NREL scientists have unveiled a storage system based on a phase-change material that can store both thermal energy and electricity in a single device. According to the researchers, the new technology ...

Imperial College London scientists have designed an air-source heat pump system (ASHP) to provide space heating (SH) and domestic hot water (DHW) for single-family dwellings, powered by solar. “The ...

There is an increasing need to look deeper into the technologies that make renewable energy more possible - one of them is thermal energy storage (TES). TES is a versatile technology that can be used ...

A new phase-change material provides a way to store heat in a stable chemical form, then release it later on demand using light as a trigger. In large parts of the developing world, people have ...

We proposed a PCM-based energy storage solution to be integrated in air-distribution systems. Charging and discharging of the PCM storage can be achieved through dynamic reset of the supply air ...

In recent years, the use of Phase Change Materials (PCMs) in thermal management systems (TMS) has garnered increased interest due to their high latent heat storage capacity, which enables effective ...
